January 2017 Honoree
arlene mayberry, RN
After arriving at the ER and having abdominal surgery a few days later, I was in the orthopedic unit through the week. During that time, I was in constant pain and discomfort and unable to accomplish the simplest tasks. I received care from more than 10 nurses. Arlene stood out as a true gem. She was positive, upbeat, and cheerful when I wasn't, and when I needed physical and mental support she was there. Even though she was in high demand on the floor, she made me feel like I was her only patient. She was empathetic while remaining extremely professional. Arlene is an example of everything one could hope for in the nursing profession.
Thank you, Arlene, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
